The controller needs to be programmed for smoother throttle response.

i got a scion IQ i am looking for someone to tranform my car for electric ..

I'd love to see a collab with rich and like the hacksmith or linus, I feel like there would be a lot of humor pack moments. Love your videos!

Wth man. Those parts in the UK, used, if we could get them, would still cost like £6k+ 😢

can somebody slide those ramps in towards the middle so thair not sooooo wide.

I lived in Brasil but I tell you. If what u doing is legible then you loosing money somewhere . Can you come to Brasil. You will be a Billionair like everybody gonna convert their cars to Electril believe me

I want one of these for my business.

Rich hit me up bro

Any chance you considered recovering power for your EVs? You can rig a alternator to recharge as you drive ( they mostly mount the alternator to a rear tire and use that to recover energy) , I've seen it working but thought the mad genius that you are could do it better! Especially after seeimg your super charge debacle, might be a fun mod for the mini and possibly if you can mod it into a Tesla! Love the channel, if we ever meet the Popeyes is on me!

“So go to a race track then” said PETER GRIFFIN

Leenda parents approve of these vids ? What’s the update on the ol school red one ?

Rich is the truth and hilarious 😂

The dash looks just like a regular mini Cooper, every emergency light lit up like a Christmas tree!

$500 max for 24H of Lemons

Did you say what you are doing for a heater/AC?

Start it in 2nd gear! You will get rid of the jerkiness (-;

Did you say 40 miles of a full charge? That doesn’t seem right...

hahahah dude loading that mini on the trailer was just EPIC

What under 3k?!?

loading it on the trailer was the best 🤣🤣🤣

Thats awesome, now I'd love to have that, loading it on the trailer was hilarious.

Not sure if I missed an episode, how did you make the power steering work ?

Pardon me, question from a peanut. Could a Jeep Wrangler be a good conversion? Ive always wanted one! Macgyver. It's always had an issue with being top heavy, but if you mount the batteries on the bottom, couldn't it just be amazing?

Cant wait to drive a Rich series

What gear you shift in for launchig? 3rd? 4th? or 5th???

What year is the car?

i wanna see this thing on a dyno

Leenda , might not clean well , but Damm She Looks good doing it!LOL!

Now Mini Cooper have worth ?

I see you connected the electric motor to the manual transmission without a clutch. Do you change gears? How? Do you just leave it in one gear ?

Those website tabs though 🤣

Amazing build and very entertaining. Thanks

It would be great if the videos would be around 10-12 mins

His assistant 🤤

My Brotha Great Job !

I scrolled a long way through the comments and NOBODY commented on a 41 mile battery life? You can grab a porsche boxter for under 5k with a 50% lower 0-60 and a 50% higher top end, same number of seats, better balance, 0 modification, and literally 10x the range. He put HUNDREDS of hours into a vehicle that can only go 20 miles from your house without several hours of recharging. I can't think of any person on the planet this vehicle is suitable for. It was fun to watch.

The assistant is peng 😍

air conditioning?

Rich needs to do something with that nappy ass beard

Because of this guy the law makers in his state will allow third parties to work on EVs (Tesla) it's kind of crazy how important of a mechanic he is.

yeah but dont put to much hp or it l blow the moter that happend to my uncle he was doing burnouts when the engine blew up my uncles reckless

Almost forgot about this. How did it make out in the lemons race or did they have that yet

Is is street legal? Can you register and get insurance on something like this?

How can this guy be so nerdy and manly at the same time.

Recording something for a documentation? Like insursnce? 😆

I'm starting a 72 midget EV conversion. Just as a fun Miami Beach toy. You are the bomb.

What happened to having the back seats????

you guys know you can put the ramps on that trailer closer together right?

Good Stuf👍.

Shes pretty good at cleaning that stick

She polished your knob.

Best take that to a mechanic. Your CEL is on!

Any Climate controls being added like AC / Heat?

Are you going to build a back trunk enclosure to cover the batteries and provide some storage in the trunk?

What was the range?

can u build dynamo at the back wheels so that it can have power for long time

Elon musk's feet

That is the nuts 💔 it larrysullivan in london

There's always a Karen that's against happines I dunno why white people don't learn to mind their damn business is that so hard to do ? .

24 hr lemons are suppose to be $500 and you got 4k, the amount of penalty laps would be crazy. And the event organizers can buy any entered car they want for $500 and you have no say, this keeps people from entering expensive cars and lieing

Slick !

I know why the top speed is 101 mph because the Chevy volt has a max speed of 101 mph

Barry 😁

That was so mean😅😂

more range = less swap time, so what is the optimum mix ? Also for road use is there a regen braking element in the controller ?

Sharing this thumbs up. Under $3g. Nice!!

24 hours of lemons

When someone scares the shit out of you when you are doing electrical work, that's worth a stabbing.

“24 hours of lemons race”

Shit video . Wasted

Rich really knows he's stuff man. @ Rich Rebuilds - Have you considered doing an EV conversion tutorial? 🤔 If yes, I'd be the first in line for sure. Let me know. Thanks for the awesome content.

Engine mounts and I think it would have benefited from a torque converter

Plz go 24 hours of lemons

#FREEUNCLERICH

Rich! You have to put the wood under the frame of the trailer on the back (on the ground). You have to have enough so it supports the trailer and prevents it from squatting to far. That way it keeps a low angle from the ramp to the "beaver tail" portion of the trailer (sloped part). That would have helped keep the bumper from hitting. Of course you would probably have a less interesting video if you did...and you are getting payed for it apparently, so maybe I'm the one that needs to learn how to do it.

I want to see an electric G body Cutlass

I'm dissapointed to see it's not RWD

Spot the Peter Griffin cameo 😂

41miles range? How much would be for 400miles range?

Classic Boston guy "So go to a fucking race track"

Please explain why you did not keep the clutch???????

fuck that guy who told you to go to a racetrack lol he doesnt own the streets

Need to make a hot electric wagon. Volvo 850R with Tesla drivetrain?

I built this with my bear hands! I love it! Cool AF! Dude I need to know all the stuff you used on this build and the cost so make a video just on that.

You need to take a rare muscle car or something that will piss everyone off and make it electric. Maybe a big truck. A diesel.

That's when grow men fill like mom just caught you smoking.

Rich, the Zilla can auto switch from series to parallel depending on draw. The famous white zombie does this to get more top end speed. Im guessing they had more kit, but that's what I remember they said about their setup.

Awesome build. Definitely something I want to do in the future with a Subaru, since Subaru barely has a hybrid and it sucks. Side question: Since its an around town car, what plans, if any, do you have for heat and AC?

That was awesome!

go to a Fukcin Race track! You idiots!!!

2:03 🤩🤩🤩🤩 whats her Instagram 😻😻

Can I buy it for 5k?

This would make a great candidate for an all wheel swap and be a drag monster

hi rich love what you are doing . if you are willing to sign an nda i would love to talk to you about a concept we are working on here in canada that will allow your mini to run perpetually with no need to hot swap batteries ever . the concept is in its infancy and with your experience to be quite honest i would value your opinion greatly. cheers and keep up the great work

Fuck supercharging. Hot swapping batteries is the future. Just keep a fresh pack at the office. Can we get links to the parts list? I want to build one.

Seems like you guys are always in trouble

give some of your time towards pheonix the husky man ,i think it is not getting attention

You should go out on a weekend night and look for some action, if your in massachusetts you'll get some action on the street, all these honda dudes are looking for runs

I know nothing about whats is going on. But this is a great video.
